Produktbeschreibung

Miniaturisation has revolutionised the semiconductor industry by making possible inexpensive integrated electronic circuits comprised of devices and wires with sub-micrometer dimensions. This is a very hot area of research with large amounts of venture capital and government funding being invested worldwide. This book highlights the growing information need in this area, presenting readers with an insider's view of the opportunities and risks associated with the development of nanotechnology initiatives.

It is ideal for executives and investors with limited understanding of the technology itself who need to know how it will impact on them and what the future developments are likely to be. Written by leading authorities from around the world, Nanotechnology: Applications and Trends provides a unique global perspective on this hot new area of research and development.
